A London cyclist whose leg had to be amputated after she was struck by a bullion van at the busy Marble Arch junction in December 2010 has won a landmark victory over an insurance company that had tried to get her to accept that she was partially responsible for the incident.
The driver involved, John Taylor, received a £500 fine plus five penalty points on his licence following his trial at Westminster Magistrates' Court last year, reports the London Evening Standard.
Veronika Pete, aged 31 and from Bayswater, plans to bring a civil action against the driver but had been told by his insurers, RSA Insurance, that they wanted her to admit 20 per cent contributory negligence.
However, CCTV evidence used at that criminal trial last year showed Taylor's vehicle swerving into the cyclist and the insurance company has now accepted that he was 100 per cent to blame for the incident.
Saying she was "extremely pleased" with the decision, Ms Pete, who will now press ahead with her civil case, hit out against "cold and heartless" insurance companies that put undue pressure on victims.
"This has been a long and exhausting legal battle, on both a physical and emotional level," she explained.
"I hope that this case will mean a better life for cyclists involved in accidents in London. You can't always prevent accidents but insurance companies must accept responsibility when it is clear that they are liable. I feel that I have been treated unfairly.
"The way in which insurance companies handle these situations is cold and heartless. My life has completely changed over the past three years and now I need to know that I can become financially secure."
Ms Pete's lawyer, Jill Greenfield, said she hoped that other cyclists involved in incidents who felt under pressure from insurance companies as they pursued compensation would take encouragement from her client's victory and not bow to insurers' demands.
Saying that it had been "a long campaign battling for justice," she advised victims "not to back down and to exhaust every possible avenue before giving in."
Ms Greenfield added that pressuring cyclists who had been injured to accept some responsibility for injuries was "extremely common practice among insurance companies".
She continued: "It is totally unfair to assume that the cyclist is to blame despite evidence to the contrary. Luckily we managed to source these pictures which prove without a doubt that my client is innocent. Now I hope that this outcome can give courage to other injured parties so that they won't accept these tactics from insurance companies."
A spokesman for RSA Insurance told the Standard that he was unable to provide specific details of the case since the claim was ongoing, but said "we are paying all her [Ms Pete's] costs and are supporting her fully with her rehab".
He added the cyclist "was kind enough to come and talk to our technical staff about the benefits of rehab and how insurers and those affected can work collaboratively and closer together."
Following sentencing in the criminal case against Taylor last year, during which the court heard that the vehicle he was driving was not fitted with additional safety mirror, the judge said they would be writing to Mayor of London Boris Johnson to urge for improvements to be made to the junction.
Deputy District Judge Bennett, quoted in The Times, said: "As part of his promise, the mayor, Boris Johnson, pledged to improve road safety for cyclists.
"I don't know if this area is in his radar but I am going to write personally requesting an urgent consideration of this particular road layout and the tragic consequences.
"It is inevitable that further accidents of a similar kind will undoubtedly occur unless changes are made. I hope that I will get a proper response."
Born in Scotland, Simon moved to London aged seven and now lives in the Oxfordshire Cotswolds with his miniature schnauzer, Elodie. He fell in love with cycling one Saturday morning in 1994 while living in Italy when Milan-San Remo went past his front door. A daily cycle commuter in London back before riding to work started to boom, he's been news editor at road.cc since 2009. Handily for work, he speaks French and Italian. He doesn't get to ride his Colnago as often as he'd like, and freely admits he's much more adept at cooking than fettling with bikes.

By Delivery Style
Research from the ASTD illustrates the underlying problem with training as follows:
- Within 24 hours, without active reinforcement, as much as 70% of what you learn today can be forgotten
- Up to 90% of people who attend a training course do not look at or review their course notes or materials when they return to the office
Research shows that people do not retain much of the training content that they are exposed to in training and rarely use the training materials after the course is completed. Yet, companies are spending an enormous amount of money on training events with the hope that performance and results will improve.
Also, nearly all of the companies continue to report having problems with sustaining a high level of performance despite the substantial investment in training employees. Training professionals are not producing the significant and lasting.
Many training initiatives are reactive in nature. An influential executive notices a skill gaps or deficiency and prescribes training as the remedy without careful consideration for the long-term benefits. In fact, training alone will rarely, if ever, provide for the lasting and productive change in the way people do their jobs. People can change only if they have an understanding of the reasons for that change and can recognize a personal benefit if they do change their behavior.
Organizations must know that training alone is rarely the solution. Training typically impacts individual performance whereas in a business setting; results are typically produced by a team of people acting in concert to achieve an objective. These people may have different incentives and barriers to their individual performance, such as different compensation plans, tools, and systems to use in doing their jobs and the types of rewards and recognition that are available. These barriers and incentives must be addressed to determine if training is part of the right solution to drive the desired behaviors and results.
At TMI Turkey, we use a five-step process that will help your organization assess your real business needs, align your solutions with your corporate strategy, deliver active learning, increase accountability and measure results.
1- We Assess Your Business Needs
Our first step is to determine precisely what gaps exist between desired outcomes and the current state. We use this information to establish a baseline of today's performance and to identify the proper solutions, and we do this by:
- Assessing the existing skill set and level of your employees
- Analyzing the organizational practices that drive or impede new ways of doing things
- Reviewing existing training curriculum to measure the extent to which it delivers necessary skills,
knowledgeand attitudes
2- We Align Your Solution with Corporate Strategy
The solutions we provide align with the long-term strategic direction of your organization. In the case of a training solution, we create the solutions that your company may easily:
- Align training expenditures in direct proportion to corporate goals
- Centralize accountability for producing high-impact training
- Solicit input from all levels of the organization on alignment and proper solutions
3- We Deliver Active Learning
Our training solutions apply the principles of adult learning and respect the needs, limits and strengths of the participants. Our active learning requires:
- Experience: Our courses are highly customized and reflect experiences from outside the classroom while creating relevant simulated experiences within the classroom
- Engagement: We design our courses by using a variety of teaching methods and media, and be entertaining to prevent boredom
- Evaluation: We create our learners to have opportunities to give and receive feedback on their progress throughout the learning experience to maximize application and retention
4- We Hold People Accountable
We know that the lack of post-training reinforcement is the primary reason for a failure to achieve improved performance. Therefore, to increase accountability we guide and lead you by:
- Making expectations and desired results clear to management and participants before training
- Having managers attend the training with their reports to create a shared learning experience
- Promoting post-training reinforcement by mandating the use of the tools, skills, and knowledge delivered in the training
- Tracking results and providing prompt, specific feedback on participant performance after training
5- We Analyze Results with The Kirkpatrick Model of Evaluation*
Level 1 & 2 Analysis: At a minimum, we conduct a robust Level 1 & 2 assessment for all training to ensure participant satisfaction and that, at the conclusion of practice, the new skills and information were delivered and understood
- Level 3 Analysis: For sophisticated skills or to guarantee compliance, we conduct a Level 3 analysis that measures retention and assesses to what extent the new information and expertise have been transferred from the classroom to the field
- Level 4 & 5 Analysis: We select one or two high-profile, high-impact programs each year and conduct Level 4 (business impact) and 5 (ROI) analysis

sensor C Temperature Readings:
From the show chassis output you provided above, doesn't look like there is any issue.
The highest temp that the system is seeing is 51.5degC and there is 30degC of margin before the fans kick from low speed to high speed. If you are seeing the fan speeds change then by looking at the log info should be able to confirm that with more details. However, note, it is not unreasonable to have the fan speeds change as a function of operation and environment. The system should print a message when it changes fan speed in auto mode. The important messaging to look for are the warning message and the shutdown message.

The knowledge you carry into the backcountry is as important, if not more so, than the gear. The more you cram into your skull, the better your chances of successfully dealing with emergencies. And, it's just plain old fun to tie sleeping tentmates up with cord. Two major areas where we can all use a refresher course are navigation and knots. You're likely to use one or both on a regular basis. Lucky for you, NASAR (the National Association for Search and Rescue) put together handy, ultralight, pocket guides for each topic.
Backcountry Knowledge and Education
There are folks who think a granny knot works just fine in every situation and that maps and compasses are vestigial in a world of GPS. Those people are not your friends. Certain knots are appropriate for certain situations. It benefits you to have a repertoire of knots at your disposal and the knowledge of when to use which one.
And, while GPS is a handy tool to have in your pack, electronics break, run out of batteries, and are generally less than 100% reliable, no matter how much you protect and pamper them. No matter what, it's always a good idea to have a paper map backup, a compass, and the skills to actually use them effectively.
The two guides that NASAR sent us to check out go over knots and navigation. Between them, you'll be covered in (I'm estimating here) 90% of unexpected, backcountry incidents. Let's go over what's in each:
NASAR Basic Navigation Guide
When you open the NASAR navigation guide, the very first thing you see is a red box reminding you to stop, think, and get yourself oriented. The guide assumes you're opening it because you're lost. Remember that if you're in trouble, the best course of action is to stay put. Only move if you have a darn good reason.
Once we get that out of the way, the guide is laid out in a logical fashion to help you work through the steps to properly navigate yourself out of trouble. It first goes over the tools of navigation – map and compass. You brought those with you, right? It reminds you to set the declination on your compass and goes over basic topo map reading skills – is that group of contour lines a ridge or a valley? Next, the guide refreshes you on map orientation and measuring distance. It has a generalized map legend that goes over standard symbols you'll see on maps, in case your topo printout doesn't have a legend. After that, the guide drops the pretense that you've remembered to bring a map and compass and goes over methods of compass-free navigation, orientation, and time measurement.
On the flip side, you get an overview of US National Grid (USNG) coordinates, the system that many SAR teams use for navigation and location. the guide also goes over multiple navigation techniques like bearing, triangulation, and dead reckoning.
The NASAR Basic Navigation Guide is a great resource to refresh your knowledge at home. It's also great to carry with you on your excursions as a backup to your brain. Sometimes, when things go wrong and hints of panic appear, it's good to have a reference that you can read and follow to help prevent mistakes. NASAR lays the guide out in a logical fashion that's easy to follow, especially in stressful situations. Definitely money well spent.
NASAR Essential Knots Guide
While you may not be whipping the NASAR knot guide out in an emergency, it still earns its place in your pack. Divided into five sections, the knots guide goes over terminology first, then dives into hitches, knots, anchors, and lashing.
NASAR's knots guide has something for everyone. From the most basic Clove Hitch (to tie cordage to something) and Overhand Knot (to stop rope from running), it bumps up to some complex rope-tangling like the Radium Release Hitch (for tandem triple-wrap belay systems) and the Double Loop Inline Figure Eight knot (for tying in a rescue litter with a tail for controlling it). Some parts of the guide are for everyone. Other parts are SAR specific and most people (hopefully) will never have to use them. The guide also diagrams tree anchors, useful for SAR, but also for top-roping climbers and 4-wheeling. It shows you how to make a body harness out of webbing. It also diagrams rescue litter lashing methods.
While most backcountry travelers will only need about half of the NASAR knots guide, it can still find a place in your pack. The knots are useful for everything from bear-bagging to lashing extra gear to your pack, bike, kayak, or packraft. Or, you could turn it into a campfire drinking game – who ties and properly faces the Figure-8 Follow-Through fastest after three beers?
NASAR Guide Review
Each NASAR guide is made from waterproof, tear resistant "paper." I tried to tear them. No dice. Weighing in at 22g each, the guides pack a lot of knowledge in a small package. Though true ultralighters may not want to add 1.5 oz to their packs and mess up that sub-8 pound base weight, us mere mortals won't notice the extra tonnage. And, quite frankly, having the equivalent of a SAR refresher course in your pocket is worth the weight and cost.
So, grab these NASAR guides and don't forget to take advantage of the classes and events at your local REI.

What happens next? One winner's success story...
Since winning the Lucy Cavendish Fiction Prize in May, Catherine Chanter's talent has been recognised many times over. As a result of being shortlisted, Catherine was introduced to, and signed up by, Literary Agent, Nelle Andrew of Peters, Fraser & Dunlop. PFD chose well. At the recent Frankfurt Book fair, her entry, The Well, was bought for a substantial pre-empt by Editorial Director, Louisa Joyner and Jamie Byng at Canongate and Michael Heyward at Text.
Louisa Joyner said: "I keep having to pinch myself to believe that we really have acquired The Well by the remarkably talented Catherine Chanter. The Well is a novel of enormous power. It combines the unputdownable pace of Before I go to Sleep with the emotional pull of The Outcast and the literary quality of early Atwood, and for it to be my first acquisition at Canongate makes it all the more exciting.'
Michael Heyward of Text Publishing was similarly impressed. "I read The Well in a kind of trance, desperate to race ahead, but wanting to savour its sentences at the same time. Gorgeously written and fiendishly constructed, this seductive and creepy novel with its backdrop of weird weather and its cast of lost souls is about what happens when escape into rural bliss becomes a nightmare. With her eye for the unexpected word and for the phrase that tightens the screw, Catherine Chanter has written an astonishing novel, and I suspect that reading it is going to become something of a cultish activity."
Daniel Loedel, the acquiring editor for S&S in the US added his praise. "The Well is a remarkably assured and original first novel, at once a haunting page-turner and a deeply-felt exploration of the mysterious connection between people and the places they call home."
About the book
Catherine's novel tells the story of a modern day Britain where it has not rained for three years except on a piece of farmland known as The Well. A high-concept literary tour de force wrapped up in a thrilling who-dunnit, it follows the story of Ruth, the owner of the land and her husband Mark as they deal with the blessing and curse of rain in the face of a nationwide drought and the devastating effect it has on their marriage, their home and the very lives of their family as they are thrown into peril.

From anti-racing to proud pro racer for WA mum of two
JUST a couple of years ago, Perth local Karis Turner was as against greyhound racing as a person could be.
The 30-year-old had heard all the horror stories related to the greyhound racing industry and was a staunch opponent – until one day her husband Morgan, 33, came home with plans of buying his own greyhound pup.
Turner said she was firmly against the idea of buying into a greyhound – telling her husband she wanted 'nothing to do with it'.
"We were into show dogs and we bought and built a kennel property with the intention of doing dog boarding, which we still do," Turner explained.
"My husband worked with a trainer named Murray Ion who had a litter of pups and one day he came home and told me he wanted to get into greyhounds.
"I was 100 per cent against greyhound racing so when Morgan decided he was going to buy a greyhound I told him I didn't want anything to do with it because I didn't believe in it."
Despite her husband owning a race dog, Turner said she still remained firm on having no involvement in the sport because of what she had heard about the racing industry.
"I had heard all the horror stories about greyhound racing in regards to cruelty, live baiting and doping – so I wanted nothing to do with it," she said.
"There is a lot of propaganda out there – stories like people shooting dogs which don't perform well – it can be quite overwhelming when you hear things like that."
However, pretty soon it became obvious that her husband's hobby was not going away – so Turner made the decision to find out more about the industry.
"There was a GAP open day at Linda Britton's property so I thought the least I could do was to see for myself how the dogs were treated.
"There were so many dogs on the property, but every single dog was in immaculate condition – they were happy, healthy dogs with wagging tails.
"It was then I realised how different reality is from what the anti-racing groups portray in the media.
"That's where it all started – I knew from then all the lies weren't true."
Although there were still some reservations, Turner soon found herself thrown into the deep end.
"After a while Morgan decided he wanted to have a go at training himself – so he got his licence and the dog came home to live with us.
"He was working FIFO so I basically ended up looking after the dog half of the time and it didn't take me long to fall in love with him.
"That greyhound's name was Double Joint – he is now retired and sleeps on our bed – and when Morgan was working I would take him to the track – straight away I could see how excited he would get when we pulled up on race night – it was so obvious that he wanted to be there.
"Every greyhound we have had since is exactly the same – they just want to race."
Turner says she now regrets her past feelings about the industry and urges all those unsure of their thoughts regarding greyhound racing to meet a trainer and see for yourself.
"You can understand why people believe the bad things in the media – they have these images of sad looking dogs and, while I know it is all lies now, it's not until you get into the industry and have a look behind the scenes you [learn the truth because until then you] don't really have a lot to go off.
"I am not saying there are no bad people in the industry – there obviously are just like any other industry – but don't tar everyone with the same brush as them because that's not the way it is.
"We have formed some really good friendships within the greyhound industry and everyone I have met is in the same position as us – they love their dogs and they treat them the best way a dog could possibly be treated."
There will be no slowing down in the future either, with three greyhounds in work and some young pups on the ground.
"We have nine month old puppies on the ground, a litter due in three weeks and a brood bitch in pup who we plan on breeding with later in the year," Turner said.
"It is very hectic, but we love the greyhound industry now and I think we will be involved for a long while."

Great to see a good news story for a change.
Most of us trainers and owners have heard similar stories. We know that only a healthy and happy animal will perform on track or anywhere else. What truly baffles me about the anti-racing folks is the constant argument put forth that somehow we place our dogs at any greater risk than they (the self-appointed 'rescuers') do? Really… do they run them at dog parks unleashed or on the beach? (mostly yes, just look at their photos of their hounds). Do they overfeed them and exercise them less? (yes there's no statistics to support my argument but increased weight carries increased risks of injury for a racing breed of any kind let alone greyhounds)
Most of the anti-racing folks that adopt with an attitude that they are 'rescuing' their dogs are actually killing them with kindness (too much food) and apathy as to their exercise needs in safe manner (accidents).
Hint - putting a 19m/sec straight line sight hound in a public dog park with other breeds is a recipe for disaster.
Greyhounds do indeed make great pets. They have a lot going for them but understand that we trainers who hand over a dog that has been cared for and groomed and looked after do not need to be tarred of the same brush as a minority. Going by the logic of the anti-racing folks, there should be pet licences for any owners and breeding licences for humans. I would support both of these initiatives, we'd end up with a safer saner and more responsible society. The greyhound community is a reflection of broader society and our 'bad apples' are only relfective of the same in broader society… such as poor pet owners, bad parents etc.
Be prepared to have a greyhound in your life forever Karis. I patted one when I was three years old and have been addicted ever since.

Victoria served as a local expert in the 2013 Best Senior Living Communities awards program in Seattle, WA.
About Victoria DeVine
I was born and raised in Tacoma, WA, and have lived in the greater Seattle area since college, currently residing in lovely Mukilteo. I first attended the Washington State University honors program, then the University of Washington (UW), graduating cum laude from the renown UW School of Nursing.
I worked in greater Seattle-area hospitals as a staff nurse, then a charge nurse, then spent five years at the downtown Seattle Puget Sound Blood Center apheresis and transfusion units starting their Transfusion Information Service and lecturing to Western Washington hospital staff and professional groups.
I worked for four years as a nursing supervisor then as Director of Nursing at Washington State home infusion services (IV Therapy at home). Then I spent 10 years in healthcare sales and marketing as regional manager, director and then vice president for a home infusion company, a home care company and a national nursing home company, respectively.
For the last 12 years, I have worked directly with seniors and their families to help them find the right homes and care, which has been a perfect match for me with my nursing background and experience, my intense knowledge of the Puget Sound area senior healthcare resources, and my love, patience, compassion and encouragement with people.
I LOVE helping morph family situations from worry, stress and anxiety to peace and improved quality of life for seniors and their families. I am blessed and honored to come alongside so many seniors and their families at these tender times to help them make their lives so much better.

Friendship Exchanges
What is it?
A friendship exchange trip is an opportunity for Rotarians to become familiar with another district in the world. We aim to become familiar with the culture, customs, and participate in a Rotary project and/or community service event while abroad. Also, we aim to have fun all the while and even experience key tourist destinations on the trip!
In general, 14-20 people would be an optimal number. Spouses or guests are welcome but this number is total people, not just the number of Rotarians. Much of this depends on the what the exchanging Clubs/Districts can accommodate.
Who long are Exchanges?
Generally, 10-14 days, again depending on what Clubs/Districts can accommodate.
What's the goal?
Very much in line with Rotary, it is to build goodwill and better friendships in the Rotary world and greater world as well. We expect long lasting friendships to emerge. PR from our District engaging on this trip is essential. The basis for an ongoing program year after year is desired also.
Chicago-Southeast Sponsors Trip to Nigeria
The Rotary Club of Chicago-Southeast invites all Rotarians in District 6450 to participate in a Rotary Friendship Exchange to Rotary International Districts 9141 & 9142 in Nigeria. This is a "Return Exchange" to the now-split District of 9140 (now 9141 & 9142), the same District that visited our area in June of 2017, just before the International Convention in Atlanta. Then, 21 Rotarians from 20 Clubs in Nigeria, led by team leader District Governor-Elect Adeyemi Oladokun (District 9141). Adeyemi has invited Rotary members and spouses/guests to return the visit during his District Governor Year in November of 2018.

Operation Sleppid Grindini 2015:
Defending Dolphins in the Faroe Islands
As many as 1,000 long-finned pilot whales are brutally killed in the Faroe Islands each year. The slaughter occurs mainly during the summer months in so-called "traditional" communal drive hunts that locals refer to as "grindadráp" or simply, "the grind". More accurately this practice should be called what it truly is - mass slaughter.
Sea Shepherd entities worldwide have has been collaborating to lead the opposition against the slaughter of small cetaceans in the Faroe Islands for decades, actively opposing the grinds since 1985. Sea Shepherd has led campaigns to the Faroes in 1985, 1986, 2000, 2011 and 2014.
As always, we measure our effectiveness by the number of lives we save. During 2011's Operation Ferocious Isles, not a single pilot whale was killed while Sea Shepherd patrolled the islands. During Operation Grindstop 2014, approximately 33 pilot whales were slaughtered. While the slaughter of any is too many, this figure marks a dramatic reduction to the more than 1,300 dolphins who lost their lives during the same period in 2013, and shows the significant impact that Sea Shepherd has had in protecting these magnificent creatures.
As Sea Shepherd entities returns to the Faroes for Operation Sleppid Grindini 2015, our goal remains the same: bring the grind to a grinding halt. Supported by a dedicated team on land and at sea, the campaign will encompass conducting investigations and documentation, providing education and local outreach, and spreading awareness through global media. Just as we have shone an international spotlight on the cruel and now infamous drive hunt of dolphins in Taiji, Japan, we will expose the horrors of the grinds in the "Taiji of the North," applying more global pressure than ever before to end the bloodshed.

A few weeks back i went on a shopping spree day with a friend, and i have to say this blazer from Zara, was probably my favourite purchase!
I'm not usually a 'studded' wearing kind of person, but this blazer is amazing. It's nice a long, has that boyfriend kind of fit to it, rather than the usual tailored shape i would normally come across.
Originally i was slightly disappointed with the clothes in Zara when it first arrived in Sydney. I was expecting to find armfuls of clothes that i would want to buy, as that is what happens when I'm overseas.
They supposably designed the clothing targeted to the Australian consumer. Well that is pretty stupid, we buy Zara overseas due to the fact that it's fashion forward at an affordable price.
That was the whole point of having an international chain here on aussie shores.
But i will admit, from shopping when Zara first arrived compared to now, it has definitely improved.
ie: the blazer i purchased!
You would normally assume that to wear this blazer, it would be a dressier option. But I'm teamed it back with a graphic tee from Topman, and Bardot leather shorts. To keep the casual look going i wore my white sneakers.

This is an 'Extreme' Sport Site - for competent cyclists only.
Site Control
A Forestry Commission Recreation Staff member will monitor the site by a formal site recorded inspection at least once a month.
Site Rules
- Type of jump constructions will be defined.
- The site to have a boundary.
- Warning signs to users and the general public as to the activity.
- Personal safety kit/procedures – e.g. use of helmets when using the site.
- Accident reporting procedures.
- Conflict with others.
- Mentoring scheme for inexperienced riders.
- Different grades of route/jumps in place.
- Litter control.
1. Construction
- The jumps are to be only constructed from the earth/sand already present on the site.
- Only hand tools should be used in construction.
- The jumps and hollows must be obvious.
- To keep the layout as open as possible.
- Good visibility of routes and jumps – paths must not cross.
- It should not cross paths or tracks used by other users of the forest.
- Any construction changes must be agreed with the Recreation Ranger prior to starting work.
2. Boundary
- The site is to have a boundary clearly marked and any paths/jumps are to be within this boundary. This is to include ride-in and ride-out (ride-in is the preparation area prior to path or first jump – similarly ride-out is the stopping or completion zone).
- This boundary is to be defined and erected by the FC, and the group is asked to regularly check that the boundary is clearly defined when they visit.
3. Warning Signs
- The FC will place warnings signs in the vicinity of the site that will:
a) Warn users of the safety rules and difficulty of the activity and that compliance of the rules is expected.
b) Make the general public aware of the nature of the activity and its location by warning signs.
4. Safety Kit/Procedures
- Riders are to wear, as a minimum, safety helmets at all times.
- They should not visit the site alone.
- Should have access to a mobile telephone whilst on the site.
- Should inform a member of the family/adult friend of their intended time span whilst using the site. The relative/friend should be aware that if the rider does not return by the agreed time, they are expected to check that they are safe.
- A rider should have access to a first aid kit whilst on the site.
5. Accident Reporting Procedures
- All accidents should be reported to the FC as early as possible after the accident – either in writing or by telephone (tel. 01394 450164)
6. Conflict Procedures
- Where conflicts arise, riders are expected to resolve issues amongst themselves. Where conflict remains the riders should contact the Recreation Ranger who will make the final decision.
- Where a visiting rider attends and conflict arises, the group should try to resolve the issue themselves. Where conflict remains, the rider's name should be forwarded to the Recreation Ranger. If this is not possible, then inform the Recreation Ranger of the conflict and leave the site for a period of time.
7. Mentoring Scheme for Inexperienced Riders
- It is expected that experienced riders will offer help and advice to inexperienced riders. This is particularly important where dangerous practice is in evidence.
8. Different gradients of route/jumps in place
- Clearly defined starts to runs/routes.
- The site should provide different grades of difficulty for a range of riding ability.
9. Litter
- It is expected that riders will make use of a litter bin. The management of the litter will be left to the users/riders on the site.
General Comment
- The Recreation Ranger or appointed officer/advisor may at any time remove or destroy a feature that is thought to be unsafe.
- The Recreation Ranger or appointed officer/advisor may close the site either temporarily or permanently for improvements or demolition.
- The Forestry Commission will continue to explore the possibility that an independent organisation will adopt and manage the site.
- The Recreation Ranger will make use of photographic evidence to support monitoring of health & safety standards.
- Only the Forestry Commission or appointed representatives will remove trees or large branches for safety reasons. This is not to be carried out by the riders or users of the site. Requests for removal of such large objects should be referred to the Recreation Ranger in the first instance.

You put your raw eggs in a ziplock bag, with all your extras, squish it around really good, get as much air out as humanly possible as you zip the bag closed, and put the bag in water at a low boil. It takes around 12 minutes to cook, IIRC.

SAR Technology and its Applications Training Workshop, November 2011
The Centre for Earth Observation Instrumentation held its third one-day training workshop on "SAR technology and its applications". The workshop took place on Tuesday November 22nd at the International Space Innovation Centre (ISIC), Harwell, Oxfordshire.
Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) is a major technique for EO of increasing in importance in the UK. Keynote speakers included Shaun Quegan from the University of Sheffield, Thuy le Toan (CESBIO, Toulouse), also David Hall and Martin Cohen from Astrium. These speakers have experience of designing SAR systems and and utilising the data to investigate key problems in Earth Observation.
The workshop built on the highly successful first and second CEOI training workshops and was particularly timely given the importance of SAR in the current European EO portfolio (ENVISAT, Sentinel-1 SAR, BIOMASS). It included presentations from experts on SAR technology, the challenges of designing world class instruments, some core SAR techniques, and EO applications. The workshop included sessions where participants became familiar with packages used to design SAR missions and to examine the trade-offs between scientific, operational and payload value.
The workshop was aimed at both academia and industry including research scientists, technologists and potential instrument PIs, both those anticipating taking on such leadership roles now and also those PDRAs/PhDs and graduates already in industry who may aspire to do so as their careers develop. The workshop was designed to provide valuable insight into the design and application process and to provide an excellent opportunity to network.
Presentations from the workshop are available:
Part I SAR instruments and technology
Perspectives on SAR (Shaun Quegan)
Key SAR technologies (Martin Cohen)
Part II: Towards SAR data
SAR physics and capabilities (Thuy Le Toan)
SAR as a measurement device: data, images and interferometry (Shaun Quegan)
Part III: SAR Mission Design Workshop
An introduction to the workshop
Workshop: Designing a SAR mission
Presentation of model results.
Part IV: SAR and its applications
SAR quiz: the answers

The most beautiful autumn day fell on Christina and Damon's wedding. It had rained the entire week leading up to the Oakey's big day and let me tell you, the sun couldn't have been warmer and the leaves couldn't have been brighter. Everything seemed to fall into place so perfectly; The beautiful bride, bridesmaids, mother and grandma all dazzled up at Tigh-Na-Mara's Grotto Spa, leaving plenty of time to snack, sip on some drinks and stay calm for what was to come. The man of the hour, and his main men were next door, doing what guys do… but this time it was the guy's room that seemed a little more tense to me. Damon was a little nervous and this only validated once again his love for Christina.
Although I was running around like a crazy person (this seems to be a common theme for me at weddings), I was still moved by the ceremony. It was everything you would want your ceremony to be…. emotional, on time, and filled with laughs. When picture time came around, we were so lucky that the tide was out at Rathtrevor Beach. We might have gotten a little wet and muddy (or if you were me, a few soakers!), but that's how great pictures are made. Christina's ivory, lace dress did taste the mud a little more than it wanted to, but hey, it was only proof to her and everyone else that she was the down to earth, easy going gal that we all knew she was.
Often for me, my most favourite part of the day is photographing the "getting ready" stages of the wedding. It must be the nervousness in the room and the excitement for what's to come that I like. However at Christina and Damon's wedding, I really enjoyed the dancing. Fun was had by all on the dance floor including everyone from the children to the grandparents. Although there were two separates sides at the reception, you never would have known it. It really did appear as if they were one big family…
Christina and Damon, it was such a pleasure to capture this day for you. I hope you can look back on these images and remember the day just as it was… sentimental, unique and a whole lot of fun

Purdue will be favored to advance when opening its 2017 NCAA Tournament play against Vermont.
The Boilermakers are 25-7, and they've won eight of their past 10 games dating to Feb. 1. It will be interesting to see if an overtime loss to Michigan in the Big Ten Tournament last Friday has any lingering effect for Purdue, which will make its third consecutive NCAA Tournament under coach Matt Painter.
Caleb Swanigan leads the Boilermakers in scoring by averaging 18.5 points per game. Isaac Haas follows with 12.8, and Vince Edwards averages 12.2.
Vermont, meanwhile, enters as one of the hottest teams in the tournament. The Catamounts (29-5) have won 20 straight games, with their most recent loss happening against Butler way back on Dec. 21.
Vermont features three players who average double-digit scoring. Anthony Lamb leads the way with 12.6 points per game, Payton Henson follows with 11.4 and Trae Bell-Haynes 11.1.
Purdue should be on the lookout when facing a hot opponent capable of pulling an upset.

5 Moments Nina Dobrev Showed Off Her Acting Ability on The Vampire Diaries
Nina Dobrev may have confirmed that she is leaving The Vampire Diaries at the end of this season, but there will be six seasons worth of acting to watch on the show. The 26-year-old definitely proved to audiences around the world that she could act, whether she was playing a scared teenager or a manipulative 500-year-old vampire.
Here are five moments that Nina Dobrev really showed off her acting ability on The Vampire Diaries.
Threatening the Salvatore Brothers as Katherine
Back in season two, Katherine Pierce seemed to be one of the big bads that everyone needed to stop. It turned out that she was a manipulative vampire on the run from the Original Vampires after killing herself with vampire blood in her system.
However, during one of the more manipulative points, Damon calls to tell her that he's killed Mason. At first she seems shocked, but she soon puts her poker face back on and warns him that she has other plans—going through the alphabet to make Damon and Stefan worry about their lives and the lives of their (Elena's) friends.
Katherine's Introduction
Nobody made a better introduction that Katherine Pierce. Sure, she'd been mentioned before now and there had been flashbacks, but the season one finale was the first time we got to see the modern day Katherine Pierce, and Nina certainly played the part well.
It was difficult to tell if it was Elena or not at first. There were a few hints looking back, but at the time many believed that John Gilbert was talking to his niece/daughter. The only real give away was the moment Katherine cut John's fingers off with the knife and then stabbed him in the gut.
Nina Plays Elena as Katherine as Elena
Trying to play two characters as once wasn't easy for Nina, but she managed it. However, season five led to the removal of various doppelgangers, one of those being Katherine. It wasn't so easy to begin with. Katherine decides that she doesn't want to die, and takes over Elena's body.
In comes Nina, acting as Katherine, acting as Elena. For the viewers, it was easy to see that it wasn't Elena considering by this point we'd gotten used to her style as both characters; the subtle differences made it much more believable while easier to watch. However, it took some time for the characters to cotton onto what had happened.
Elena Realizes Jeremy Is Dead
Season four led to the death of Jeremy—no not just any death but what should have been a permanent death. In the end they got around it, but there was the moment for fans that it looked like it was the end. The moment Elena finally realized and accepted that Jeremy was dead was the biggest moment of them all.
Nina had acted grieve-driven before, but this scene was the best of them all. It was the moment she realized she was on her own, for all of eternity. Many fans have since made videos using that one scene, some have even done crossovers between Supernatural and The Vampire Diaries, including my favorite below.
Those who say they didn't cry at this scene were likely lying. It was difficult not to feel the emotion coming from Nina during the whole scene.
Katherine Pierce Dying
500 years as a vampire soon caught up on Katherine in season five. After being fed the cure in the season four finale, she had to be human again but was quickly losing teeth and her hair. Her feet hurt and her organs quickly started shutting down to the point where she had episodes to live. In short, she was dying of old age, despite only looking in her 20s.
It couldn't have been easy to act as Katherine dying of old age. There were various sides of Katherine that we saw during these few episodes, including the vulnerable one looking for redemption.
Nina has had the fortunate chance of playing multiple characters within on show. On The Vampire Diaries, she has played a human, a vampire, a doppelganger, an anchor and so much more. She has died and been brought back to life more times than anyone can count (although probably fewer times than Jeremy and Bonnie!), and she even got to play a humanity-free Elena for a short time. Nina has definitely had the chance to show that she can act, and there is a bright future for her in the TV/movie world.
